I have (and love) the same kind. The official parts place is here but they&#39;re expensive and earpads are no longer available. I would check ebay, stuff like this or this pops up for cheap.<br/><br/>While I won&#39;t do business with Amazon, I can&#39;t make that decision for others, so I&#39;ll mention they have the cable here.<br/><br/>Both ebay and amazon have lots of aftermarket earpads but they are shaped differently than the factory ones.

protocol bridge eventually succumbs to the same fate: one side of the bridge decides it needs to control its userbase, so it shuts off the bridge to induce people to make a new account in their tool, instead of remaining interoperable.<br/><br/>the only defense against this is to use protocols with robust ecosystems and lots of implementations, sufficient to ensure no single group can drive it into the ground. this is why email, irc, and (we hope) mastodon survive while all the bridges into slack, matrix, facebook messenger, google talk, etc have all disappeared or are at siginificant
